Reading the manual is a must. Otherwise, you will come to the erroneous conclusion that the lifedrive is defective. The most challenging feature of the lifedrive is Synchronizing which can be quite challenging. With practice, time and the help of a few free downloads it will eventually become a breeze for even the most technophobic user.

Excelent Product! Perfect Agenda, Contact info and Tasks.
The best data entry, as it have the Graffity.
With a memory of 4GB, you can do anything you like.
The camera companion is great, as you can download the pics to the lifedrive and keep taking pics(with a SD Mem card)
The Ptunes is pretty nice and the voice notes as well.
Simple games are played well.
Great Product!
I don't give it a 5 because is a little bit heavy, but not heavier than a camera.

Apparently, Amazon has a bug in their inventory system. I ordered this with Amazon Prime overnight shipping ... a box arrived the next day with a set of refurbished 5.8 GHz cordless phones. Fine phones, I imagine, but not what I ordered. A rep from Amazon walked me through the return process, a replacement order was submitted, and the UPS guy picked up the return box. The next day, a box was dropped off and AGAIN I received a set of refurbished 5.8 GHz cordless phones!

Now, I have to say, Amazon has been responsive in regards to processing the returns but to have the exact same wrong product delivered is very frustrating. UPS will be picking up a return again but, according to Amazon policy, a refund has been processed instead of a replacement.
